Google took in our time at the Mobile World Congress in Barcelona big time. The company had, for example in 2011, a slide on the stand and then we could eat Ice Cream Sandwiches. This year Google has one of the courtyards fully adopted at the MWC.
Badges, pins and more pins
Traditionally, Google Android badges to all its partners. These clips are then deposited on the partner stands and MWC visitors are challenged to collect all the badges.
All the clips have a matching sticker and when you have enough stickers, you will be eligible for a bronze, silver or even “golden” Android badge. This year there were to collect 87 different pins at the different stands.
Marshmallow smoothies
Google has turned into one of the courtyards of the Mobile World Congress to Android garden. With (fake) plants in the form of Android mascots and a couple of big Android shaped booths company immediately gives a looser meaning to the normally drab collection of food stalls and seating.
When you as Mobile World Congress visitors are hungry or thirsty, you can choose to eat a hamburger small menu for 17 euros, but you can also stop by one of the Android stands in the garden for an (un) healthy Marshmallow smoothie.
Goblets and rows
Google offers almost every year, in addition to stickers, also a perk. So was it ever possible to smartphone cases with ‘crystals’ to make an Android tablet controlled robot. This year the company gives personalized goblets away. The application Androidify make you a verandroidiseerde ‘version of yourself, and this image is put in a cup with your name.
A nice souvenir of the Mobile World Congress, or perhaps a great gift for the home front will you might think. Unfortunately, the Google gift proved quite popular and walked the rows until a certain hour: for us not to do with a busy schedule. However, we still had some time to make a Androidify sticker ourselves.
Our impressions of the presence of Google with Android at Mobile World Congress you see in the video below.
Android Experiments
We know Android Experiments already as a digital repository for interesting Android applications. This may for interesting concepts for live wallpapers, but also games that make use of new technologies. Also powered by Android inventions welcome, as we saw on the Android Experiments stand in the Android garden. Here, for example, were demonstrated interesting watch faces and live wallpapers, but also physical concepts were also present.
A nice example is the experiment where a portrait is put in order to sketch on paper. This is done by two ropes to which a pin depends to send. The result can be called in any case very interesting.
Closed doors
Google is the biggest mobile fair in the world an opportunity par excellence to meet possible partners in a short time and that the company makes sure use. Google has also a more upscale, private booth which also completely in Android style.
